BMR Rear Sway Bar Mounting Kit with 22mm Bushings - Weld-On - Bare Finish (SMK004) - 1982-2002 GM F-Body
Easily adapt or add a 22mm rear anti-roll system to a custom aftermarket rear end housing with the Weld-On Rear Sway Bar Mounting Kit (SMK004) from BMR Suspension. Upgrading the rear differential in your third- or fourth-generation F-Body often leaves you without proper factory-style sway bar mounting provisions on the axle tubes. BMR engineered this comprehensive weld-on kit to resolve that exact issue. Unlike basic bracket kits, this complete package includes heavy-duty brackets, form-fitting heavy-duty mounting saddles, high-durometer polyurethane bushings, and complete sway bar end links, making it the ultimate solution for adding maximum body roll control to a high-performance rear axle setup. It is optimized for maximum muscle car versatility across street performance, pro-touring, and hard-launching drag racing applications.
Constructed to survive severe launch loads and structural chassis twisting, the axle brackets in the SMK004 kit are manufactured from heavy-duty 3/16-inch steel plate that is precision laser-cut and CNC-formed. This heavy-duty composition ensures an exact contour match over any high-performance aftermarket rear end housing featuring 3.00-inch to 3.25-inch diameter axle tubes (such as built Ford 8.8, 9-inch, or 12-bolt configurations). Shipped in a bare, uncoated finish, these brackets are optimized for clean welding directly onto your axle housing. The system features BMR's heavy-duty formed steel sway bar saddles paired with 95-durometer polyurethane bushings engineered specifically for 22mm (7/8-inch) diameter sway bars. These bushings significantly reduce compliance and deflection compared to stock rubber, ensuring immediate anti-roll bar rate transfer while remaining fully greasable for smooth, squeak-free operation. The kit is rounded out with zinc-coated assembly hardware and new polyurethane-bushed end links to refresh your entire rear suspension connection.
